Chapter 023: Tuzi, I Hurt
In the end, it was Yu Jianguo who came forward to persuade Lian Sheng's daughter-in-law's maiden relatives to leave.
Who knew that they had just left on the front foot, and the people in the village stopped doing it, although they did not accuse the old man, but they all said that the old desolate grave was evil, and someone with the ability had to come and take a look.
Yu Jianguo was in a dilemma, so he could only look at the old Yu.
Lao Yu covered his chest for a long time before he smiled bitterly and said, "Go find it......"
After saying that, he turned and went into the house.
I watched him hunched on his back, his eyes couldn't help but redden, and I glared at the person at the gate of the courtyard fiercely, and slammed the door.
Old Yu sat on the chair and sighed.
Grandma cooked a bowl of noodles for Lao Yutou, "I told you before not to meddle in your affairs, okay, hurry up and eat, maybe the village chief can really find someone who has the ability!" ”
The old man had a complicated expression, and it took a long time before he said, "I hope so......"
I feel aggrieved for the old man, but I also feel that what my grandmother said makes sense.
"Dad, or you can leave it alone." I say.
He glanced at me, touched my head and said, "This is my responsibility, although I have only been studying the Tao for a short time, I can't sit idly by, otherwise I won't have the face to see my master after I die." ”
I nodded as if I didn't understand, and after eating, I was bombarded by my grandmother and went to sleep.
Lying on the bed, I couldn't fall asleep over and over, and I didn't know what kind of Taoist priest Uncle Jianguo could find?
I used to hear Lao Yutou say that now there are fewer Taoist priests with real skills, and many of them are half-witted.
I finally fell asleep, but I felt a stream of cool air rushing to my face, and I couldn't stop shrinking into the quilt.
"Tuzi, Tuzi."
Lamei was calling me, and her voice was very uncomfortable and weak.
I opened my eyes and looked inside the house for a long time, but I didn't see Lamei.
Just as she wanted to speak, Lamei's cry came into her ears again: "Tuzi, I'm so uncomfortable, my hands and feet are very painful!" ”
I thought I was dreaming, but as soon as she finished speaking, my hands and feet began to hurt, and when I was in a daze, I seemed to hear a thud, as if something had pierced into the flesh, and at the same time the palms of my two hands ached sharply!
"Tuzi, I hurt!" Lamei cried bitterly, as if it was in pain, and I was not happy, my hands and feet seemed to be nailed to the bed, and the pain made me a layer of cold sweat, and my eyes were black.
"Dad, grandma......" I called Lao Yutou and grandma with tears, but no one paid attention to me when I shouted hoarsely.
It's getting cooler and cooler, and the wind is blowing straight on my head!
"Grandma, I hurt." I was hoarse and crying, and I couldn't move in bed.
I was in a hurry, biting the tip of my tongue and spitting out with blood mixed with spit, but it was useless.
Lamei was still crying and calling me, "Tuzi, come here, help me, I ...... so much"
With Lamei's words, my body was cold for a while, and my consciousness was a little blurred......
"Get out!" Suddenly, there was a loud shout, and Lamei's crying stopped abruptly.
I shuddered and turned my head to look around, but there was still nothing.
"It hurts?" The low, melodious voice I had heard rang out, and I was stunned before I realized that he was asking me.
I sniffed and nodded, and whispered, "It hurts!" ”
I don't know if it's my delusion, but I feel like there's someone lying next to me......
As soon as the words fell, my hands were grasped, and I immediately gasped, feeling like I had fallen into the ice, wet, and very uncomfortable.
But after a while, his hands and feet slowly warmed up.
I cautiously asked, "Who are you?" ”
"You'll find out later." He said lightly and touched my face.
I shrunk into the quilt, and just as I was about to ask him if he knew where Lamei had gone, I heard a rooster croak and a buzzing sound in my head, like a lump of paste.
"Did this work?" I heard my grandmother's voice, and she seemed to be in a hurry.
"It must work, the rooster crows three times, and she will wake up."
The voice of the speaker was hoarse, as if there was phlegm in his throat, and my throat began to itch when I heard him speak, and I felt panicked.
The rooster crowed twice, and then my upper lip ached, and I opened my eyes to see a man in his forties standing on the edge of the bed, holding a sewing needle in his hand.
Grandma and Lao Yutou were standing behind him, and the bolt was squatting at the door.
"Can you move your hands and feet?" The man asked me.
I moved, hissing in the cold air, "I can move, but it hurts." "It looks like something is stuck in the flesh, and the shoulders are a little heavy.
"Grandma, it hurts." I looked at my grandmother pitifully.
Grandma's eyes immediately turned red, and she was busy coming over to coax me, "Don't cry, grandma will blow it for you, and when Daochang Zhao cures you, grandma will make dumplings for you to eat." ”
I nodded with a pout, squeezed into my grandmother's arms, and secretly looked at the man in front of the bed, is he a Taoist?
Lao Yutou breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Daochang Zhao very politely: "Daochang, what should I do next?" ”
"Go to Lamei's grave." He said in a deep voice.
I didn't dare to touch the ground with my hands and feet, so Zhao Daochang let the bolt carry me on his back and followed him and Lao Yutou.
"Uncle Bolt, where did Daochang Zhao come from?" I asked curiously, looking at Daoist Zhao's dress and a pair of black-framed glasses, he didn't look like a Taoist priest, but like a cultural person sitting in the office.
The bolt said in a low voice: "The village chief found it, but he is also the one who gave me money last time to dig the old deserted grave by the river, and today it is thanks to him, otherwise you will have an accident." ”
"What's wrong with me?" I asked, I still can't figure it out, my hands and feet are fine, there are no injuries at all, but why does it hurt so much?
"When I came over, you were lying upright on the bed crying, and I didn't respond to talking to you, Brother Yu tried a lot of methods to no avail, and then Zhao Daochang woke you up, but how could I stand by the door, and I didn't see how he did it." Bolt explained, and at the end of the day, he was a little regretful.
I put my arms around his neck, hummed, and said nothing else.
When Lamei died, Du Gang buried her on the mountain bun east of the poplar forest in the back mountain, a small grave bag, lonely, with several weeds growing on it.
Old Yu squatted down and looked at it for a long time, frowned and said, "This doesn't look like it was dug up recently." ”
Zhao Daochang didn't speak, and directly took the shovel and dug up Lamei's grave with a few clicks, there was only a straw mat inside, and there was no Lamei's body at all.
"How so?" Old Yu Tou was surprised.
I was also taken aback, where did Lamei's body go?
Zhao Daochang said while filling in the grave: "I didn't want to come over, I'm afraid you don't believe it, but now seeing is believing, let's go, go back and heal the soil first." "Back at home, Zhao Daochang asked me to sit cross-legged on the bed, he went to the wing room to tear off the red paper with Lamei written on it from the wall and put it in the brazier at the head of the bed, and cut a paper figure with red paper, painted my facial features with my blood, wrapped my hair, and then wrote my birthday with cinnabar, and threw it into the brazier.
I looked at his busy work inside and out, and asked puzzledly, "Daochang Zhao, what are you doing?" ”
"Drive Lamei away, don't let her be your ghost fairy." He replied.
Hearing this, Lao Yutou sat up straight suddenly, but looked at Zhao Daochang for a long time without speaking.
Zhao Daochang went to the yard again and cut a handful of black dog hair and put it in the brazier, then clapped his hands and said to me: "Wait until you close your eyes, you must not speak, you can't move, you know?" ”
I was busy nodding, but I was very puzzled, obviously it was Lao Yutou who invited Lamei back, why did he want to drive her away now?
